Proven oil and gas province –

Brunei is currently Asia’s third highest producer.

Underexplored –

minimal on-shore exploration activity during the past 20 years.

High drilling success rates –

historical rates in Brunei are very high relative to other regions.

Low drilling costs –

due to largely on-shore acreage location of Block L and ready access to

services and contractors.

Excellent access to existing infrastructure –

means a timely and inexpensive path to

commercialisation for any successful discoveries.

Improved seismic and drilling technologies provide enhanced opportunities

Block L covers approximately 1/3 of Brunei, approximately 2,200km².

Near term production opportunity

The Jerudong

Field discovered oil in

1955/56 with Jerudong-2

(the first success

in Brunei Darussalam outside the Seria

field).

Jerudong-6

(1956) discovered gas

Jerudong-9

(1957) -

a twin hole slightly

updip from Jerudong-2, discovered oil and

gas

Between 1956 and 1962, the

field

produced 628,000 bbls

The field was shut-in in 1962 for

political

reasons

Jerudong-11 (1987) -

discovered a 12 m

net gas sand in a very complex part of the

structure

High impact exploration and exciting long term growth potential

Proven oil and gas province –

Brunei is currently Asia’s third highest producer

Multiple play types and numerous leads and prospects

Modern 3D seismic available and addition new seismic

Little recent exploration activity means significant advancements in

exploration are yet to be utilised

High drilling success rates (typically 1 in 3)

Leads and prospects resources of 1.0tcf gas (P50)

Drill two onshore exploration wells, each to a minimum depth of

2,000 metres.

FUTURE EXPLORATION

Phase 2 Exploration Programme

Acquire and process at least:

-

500 kilometres of onshore 2D seismic data

-

500 kilometres of offshore 2D seismic data;

Acquire and process at least:

150 square kilometres of offshore 3D seismic data (or dollar equivalent amount of 2D seismic data)

Phase 1 Exploration Programme

Aerial gravity/magnetics
